Marimo + gradation mani

I recently bought 3 Marimo balls :D I bought them from a fair at NTU from http://giveaplant.com/

Awwwww~ They look so cute!

 On the website, there's some hogwash story abt the plants being incarnations of a pair of lovers or something. :| I don't believe it but I do think the plants are really cute! :) supposedly the Japanese keep these plants as pets...............

Went to Ladyfinger @JP to do my nails again. Must use up that package quickly so i never need to go to them again =.=
Anyway, this is a gradation mani: opi last friday night, TINS 013 - The Relax Mint, TINS 005 - The Aquamarine.
Frankly, I think i could have done a better job. Especially since It started chipping slightly at the edges right after I went home and bathed =.=||  I think it's cause the manicurist was so stingy with the polish, so the layers were all so thin. Seriously. The more I go to this shop the more angry i get :|

Rescue Beauty Lounge Haul!

I've dozens of pics to show but just no time to update :| sigh...

Anyway, here are some pics of my recent haul from Rescue Beauty Lounge :) I order 8 polishes(prep, basecoat, Catherine, scrangie, iconoclast, Catherine h, insouciant, under the stars) and the spiced floral body cream.

The colors are all so pretty!!

Spiced floral body cream. It smells Absolutely Heavenly!!

Gelish Sweet Chocolate

So I went to do Gelish at Ladyfinger at bedok again and it seems the price has increased to $85 for classic mani, gelish color and removal. The manicurist said the previous promotion was over and so the price is now higer. Whatever. I think it's overpriced and the service wasn't very good. Seriously. If the service keeps going downhill, what's the point of buying a package?! The package isn't cheap and there's differential treatment AFTER you've signed on =.=

But Gelish products are nice so I don't mind going to OTHER manicure shops to get better services at better rates. Look, here's the color "Sweet chocolate". It looks like a common brown without light but under light it bursts into multi-colored glitter with predominant copperish-brown shimmer. Very pretty :)
